I've seen your shit throught the years and I never really cared, it just looks like fetishistic autist schizo drawings . But the text, visual narrative and composition man... it's so bad have you ever in your life read a fucking comic dude? or do you waste all your time drawing you mental porn?
honestly I don't give a shit about your art I know you're some kind of retard and a lost cause , but fix the rest at least

If you look at it,its doodled in a Comic Journal, and I was forced to stuff the narrative into prerendered panels. And I wanted to be experimental for my own benefit. And lastly these are STORYBOARDS. Ideas flung down on paper haphazardly for later refining and redoing. And NOT the work itself. For instance, I did storyboards for the first 30 strips of this story, and from that I made strips like these. And the final product is not the same as the storyboard either. It's a tool that I actively encourage new artists to use.

This is a fragment of the storyboard from that story. It captures a moment harsh and raw in the narrative, and once I would get to it, I would draw each bit separately and through Photoshop Legerdermain make this into a comic like the other.

Now do you see the importance?

I'm really trying to read but your writing is so broken and unclear that it's really hard, it's not pleasant to read this at all

It's like trying to watch a movie but the audio is corrupted to a point where you just stop watching

And what I am able to read it just seems like convoluded rambling, it doesn't feel stylistic or funny it's just tiring and annoying

>>8016037
This I can read but it's just awfully done, no taste, no skill


It's just garbage, there's absolutely nothing there that's done correctly

And this lineart really shows how low your skills are while you try to hide poor technical skill under endless detail and texture and that's the only gimmick you have managed to pull off in order to get anyone to give any compliments

Fuck, it's kinda sad but you're also so delusional and lazy in terms of learning and improving that you kinda deserve to be in this situation

You don't even know what a storyboard is and the craziest thing is that you're a middle aged dude and not some naive high schooler

Because these are Storyboards and intended for no one but myself. And now, for someone who likes it enough so far to make fan art like this. Quick, clean, competent, and by some miracle, Enthusiastic. I want him to see the story so far so he might try his hand at doing it.

Thanks anon! Don't worry your writing is totally readable, it may be hard for people on their phones maybe.
You're actually correct in your assessment of how an storyboard should look. Your work here fits that perfectly..
About me trying to attempt at doing your magnum opus here, I really don't feel qualified for that. Your work has SOVL, as others said many times. No one can replicate that. I do simple coom, devoid of any complexity, commitment or seriousness. Your style is so baroque and it has that rough "indie comic" and retro Gothic Darkness from the 70s/80s, you shouldn't let anyone re-do your style.

About picrel, I did a homage to one of my favorite panels in the comic that you posted here. That panel was hot for some reason lol. I see you have fun doing these stories, you should keep doing more of these "storyboards" making new tales.
About my "spin-off" comic I will post it here I guess, and I'll keep posting new pages if I'm allowed to. My story is supposed to have many sex scenes, and even though I made the girl human, saving those ears and the "button nose", I'm not sure if I'm in the clear. So probably I will be deterred to finish it here. We will see.

/i/ is way more dead than this board. If you send this poor guy there he will rope himself drown in a deeper depression. Here at least you have feedback, even if it is just insults and mockery. Sometimes what you need is a kick in the teeth to get your shit together.
>>
>>8016745
his output is good atleast. he just needs to work on form and line weight, make his characters more readable before doing stories
>>
Schribblefurry anon has a cool style but I also have to admit it's messy, all over the place and also unappealing and not inviting me to read the story
>>
>>8016774
Getting inside the mind of one the weirdest schizos in this board should be enough incentive to take a look at it.
>>
>>8016780
I'd rather look at Crumb's, Kago's, or Zaskòrski's unhinged comics though. There's so much cool stuff out there with appealing art. Also, I'd rather get into the mind of Darger if I could single out one schizo I had to understand.
I think the furryscribble schizo could produce some interesting comics if he studied more how others worked and if he actually spent time on making layouts beforehand. It looks like he plans his works poorly and improvises most of it.

Also, I think the drawings could benefit from a teensy tiny bit less hatching. And I say this as this board's Number One Gorey Fan

I'ma be real with you, you've got way too much text, especially the narration. A lot of it can be simplified, or excised completely with the art taking up the role of it.
I also think your strip format might be holding you back. You could probably have some more dynamic panels and compositions if you were using a standard full page format.
>>
>>8016855
>took "just draw" as serious advice
It is serious advice. This guy's drawings are unappealing, but he has an artistic outlet and distinctive style nonetheless, while all you have is 4chan posts.
>>
>>8017199
It's true that drawings are better than no drawings. But the next step is to work on making better drawings because appealing drawings are better than unappealing drawings

Thanks for the feedback anon! Actually, all of those points continue to be brought up time and time again, and I keep explaining each one every time, lol. I used to do vertical comic format, wich of course allows better figure composition and more varied and dynamic poses. But that amount of "artistic freedom" becomes unmanageable. A vertical page becomes incredibly lengthy I could be working on it for days, and after is done I end up absolutely drained. And the standard comic page format requires too much thought on the lay out, you have to take your time to do a proper comic page. So I need brutal and shitty boundaries and limitations to force myself to get one of these pages finished within a day. It's the only way. At least for me. I can't afford to spend too much time with this.
And about the text, that's the thing that I love the most, that's why I left that blank space above, to fill it with text, if I can, lol. People seem to deny themselves the pleasure and joy of indulging themselves, with the things THEY like and savor the most.

I would like to draw my graphic novel in strip form while videoing myself in hyperlapse,then dissect, color, tweak and embellish the raw art into hardcopy books.

But we don't always get to do what we like.

Last year I couldn't draw until November or so. And the variables that were responsible for this are still in play, so I have been doing studies. Pencil followed by ballpoint, ballpoint followed by gel ink, pencil followed by gel ink. And trying to render ivory hair over white fur obscuring a dark wood chair and a holographic image too. Things best figured out by the attempting. And I put the results here. When I do something For Realzies, you will definitely know it.

It will be on a tshirt for sale.

As I await news of life changing events this week, I will have a better idea of what I will have in the way of drawing time. And once I know that, I can direct my efforts.

I composed my last eight or so works randomly, starting in a spot, drawing stuff, branching outwards and composing a situation, then stuffing the negative spaces with background material. To get some rendering in so once I get everything inked then properly scanned, I can proceed with other areas of my education long put off.

Like this thing. A finalist in my tshirt design project, this will be dissected as its colored, and I will see what Photoshop legerdermain can do to give it the faux 3D look its background will have. And I need to see how my style needs to alter to accommodate the expected Photoshop treatment. Which means doing other things first to learn such answers.

Thanks anon! As you pointed it out, in this last page I didn't had any extra text for these panels, so I took the time to come up with some words to describe the action.. and as I said, I enjoy the FUCK out of that. It's like solving a hot entertaining puzzle. Why would anyone reject any added value opportunity of any sort? If some are not interested in the text, just don't read it. But to "hate it", and to demand the non existence of it.. it just leaves me staggered. It's like there's actually a biological difference from people from decades ago, and the "new people". I'm not too old, but I got to live the visual novel craze, and the fanfic era, wich is all about story and world immersion. You wanted more, always more, to drown your brain into that experience. Reading books for these people must be a real nightmare.

I added your suggestion. I knew about that, but I let is slip just because of laziness. Originally she was supposed to smirk at it, but she needs to say something else and that won't work in the last panel. So the smirk expression will be at the start of the next page. This is the problem with "my system", I got everything so extremely "mechanized" that once I "GO" then I won't stop and I won't deviate from anything that I got set up (rough sketch and text wise) till I finish the page. "No second takes" lol. But you're right, I was expecting nobody to call me out in this dark lonely corner of the board. xD

THANK YOU ANON!!! I think I know you as the "nun-anon" lol.
Yeah nuns are hot. If I do some nun story I can't use this shitty "comic" style. I would have to use a MUCH bigger canvas to make some really good nuns. And I don't have that quality and amount of free time right now.
In the meanwhile here you have a Sparky nun. I don't know how nuns and religion fit in Gary's "Prickles world". Maybe they can exist in the form of "priestesses" I don't know.

>>8019732
He has a very particular style, you can't put him simply on "beg". He's in that "fairy-tale / fantasy illustration genre". That type of artists stay in a genre of their own during their entire career. This guy as most people, had to sacrifice art and keep it in the back of his priorities to actually take care of subsistence in the real world out there. Same as me, same as everyone else. The difference that I made was to try a Digital tablet and actually find it fun and easy to use. Otherwise I wouldn't be drawing nothing at all.

Yes, years of setbacks,problems and misfires. Even now I am waiting for news that will determine what shape my life takes in the future. Then I can point my efforts properly. In the meantime, I will figure out art through the random projects that I have been doing, and hope.

What I wanted to do is this :

https://youtu.be/tCE1GQHCdDc?is=9kjWONeNdZ-aDi12

https://youtu.be/UoTBkDRWCSw?is=4wCQQoD7js4p2bX5

https://youtu.be/D2gEr0dIf1k?is=BEekoinKkLhGk9Au

A story that unfolds before your eyes.

The channel needs work, the videos need soundtracks, and these are things I need to learn how to do for myself. But once done, I would be happy watching a tale grow as I once chased a story I wasn't expecting for over a decade over 180 strips.

This one came out better than the previous one I think.

The idea revolves around SPONTANEOUSLY WRITING A STORY.

Being 60+ now, I have conceived a business model for my artistic output, which is to grow a fanbase with consistently timely uploads and sell compilation hardcopy books and tshirts. And since the premise is at least uncommon, it will be a worthy monument to the zeitgeist.

I have yet to scan the raw art, so I have not explored what I can do with it in Photoshop. I guess I will need to assemble a library of imagery for the colored background elements. It's all about planning. And having the time for plans.

>>8020086
Well, its not meant for public consumption, just a thing that I used in a normie draw your comic life diary to justify the $10 I spent on it 4 years ago. I'd not confine myself to this artificial restriction of pre rendered panels to tell my stories For Real, but it was part of the fun composing it. Which brings me to...

>>8020970
You! :D

Your skills impress me. And I am happy the premise has you inspired. I would not stop what you are doing now, but I will still extend the invitation to retell my story. As an education for you, to force yourself to interpret a writer's story but keep the ideas and images faithful to the source material. I am curious what you will make of it.

Lucky "Spark Keeper" enjoyer.. lol... I'm thinking that probably I could be banned first. I'll have to censor the sexy scenes in this story in "manga style" pixelation or something to avoid that. The love story about Milo and Sparky is more important than their sex scenes really.

Is this one better? Yeah, I wasn't sure about it. I'm glad I'm posting these WIP's, otherwise I would have go on with that face.
Also I show there the difference in working area size, If I work at a big sized canvas (as I would like to) I can do MUCH better stuff, but then, time and effort would increase exponentially. Like, a page that takes me 5hs to do at a height of 1400pixels, at 3000+pixels would take me 16HS or more. And these projects would become undoable time wise. That's why figures in some panels look so basic and "thick lined", I'm working at a tiny scale, but it allows me to do this incredibly fast xD

I was trying to make a project to educate myself in various processes that I felt the need to get familiar with. This was to build a tshirt design from the ground up, having had ambitions in the distant past,and I still wear my prototype. I wanted to make a "modular" shirt, one with a framing outer area that would contain new inner art, so I could just make new centerpieces for the frame, generating new products faster and with color variants potentially dozens from one piece of art.

First the frame had to be correct. I had a tshirt template to utilize, and I decided to have one design for both sides of the shirt, so the edges had to meet exactly to give the illusion of the frame wrapping around the torso. This I thought I did,but the prototype has a grey null stripe where the art should have joined seamlessly. And even worse,the bulk of the center artwork gets stuffed down your pants, and only the top eye is peeking up out of your zipper like a periscope, or something else. So the next version would be 65% frame and the centerpieces stuffed up by the chest.

I witnessed many entrepreneurs having all sorts of (disastrous) problems trying to manufacture and sell T-Shirts. Size issues, the main one. People are very picky, they want the right size when you probably can produce only one or two sizes. Also on delivery, people suddenly realizes that they don't like what they got, and they want to return it, but by then you are already losing money, money that you expected to get from selling those products, wich you need to pay the loan you took to start the business in the first place. Be warned, Clothing business is a very tricky and problematic one.

Ah,Gwar! I have a story about them! :D

They appeared in a small club in New Jersey, and my friends and I were camped out in the front row. The audience was a sea of skull shirts, black with the best art on the back of it for inspiring the envy of everyone behind you. All except me. My shirt was white,and the art was on the front. A wonderful detailed head of Larry Fine of the Three Stooges, GLARING at you. And on top of that, I was having a fine time being annoying. Instead of cheering, I just would growl like a caveman Ruh Ruh Ruh!
When Sleazy P Martini tried getting the crowd to chant for Slaughterama, I chanted for Gor Gor, something that couldn't fit on that stage. Oderous Humongous wouldn't go out onstage after a while, and I started to behave, screaming for Slaughterama. " Yeah,Slaughterama!",Sleazy yelled at me," And NOT RUH RUH RUH!"
>>
>>8023760
No problem like that ever existed for me.

The store was online,and ordering a product would have another website handling the manufacturing and delivery as needed,providing all sizes and shirt styles as required. All I needed to do was stick my art into their templates and watch the profits roll in. My problem was getting a pause between the payment depositing and the manufacturing starting, making the cash outlay my problem for the product generating, but I suppose it was some statistics that I could have tweaked to solve it.

I love how these compositions of yours have that cozy domestic ambiance. If a "medium" (in this case a rough sketch) is already successful to convey the "vision" of your idea, then that should be enough as a final rendering format. I personally don't need a super rendered version of that image you did. You should keep doing more, endless drawings like those portraying hot feverish scenarios and situations.

I attempted that with this one shot.

Peter and Lissanna have an interesting dynamic. She sees him initially as a way out of her small town (despite being in a highly adventurous place), but falls in love with his selflessness and his bravery.
But after seeing the five females that he allowed into his life being destroyed by arch mage hunting for him, he shuns her advances because he couldn't bear another dying from getting too close.

Peter, like I, would not consider any close relationship when pursued by the bounty hunters sent by an archmage you escaped from his particularly cruel slavery. And after watching five innocent young girls he dared befriend have gruesome ends because of getting caught in the crossfire, doubly determined to not be tempted to bring another to her doom.

Or so he thinks.

A storyline that I have held in my head after products several graphic novels (LOL) was a confrontation with the arch wizard after Peter relates to Jeremey about each of these unfortunate girls and their adventures together, and his account of their supposed demises. Unknown to him,all survived and show up on his doorstep a bit pissed off at being abandoned or whatever each filling in details of what really happened to them. Then they all start bitching at once, and Peter runs from the house. Jeremey yells at them all about what Peter was unburdening himself of, mourning all of them with chains of guilt tying up his heart. Then he goes to find Peter.

Jeremey finds Peter a short way away kneeling in the tall grass, weeping hysterically. Jeremey tries to comfort him, saying that he told them off for being wrong about things. But then Jeremey notices something odd.

Peter is laughing as well as crying. Can't tell one from the other, Jeremey states, not sure what to make of it. Peter catches his breath and says with joy :

>"They're ALIVE! All of them! I didn't make them die!"

Then he stands. The beginning of the story was a bounty hunter was in the vicinity and Jeremey and Peter were lying low, when Jeremey asked why he didn't like Lissanna back. Then the sequence of five flashbacks, Peter then resolves to go along with the bounty hunter straight to the arch mage.

Soon.

I just finished inking that,and have a couple of more pencil drawings that need inking as well. Then I can drag them all to Staples and scan them so I can do the computer side of the research. How to color, how to draw to anticipate coloring, and then I can get started on the YouTube channel and setting up shop for systematic video production and promotion. Things I need to learn, processes that need forging and refining. A definitive sense of what my free time will be like in the foreseeable future, and how best to use that time. A variable that is uncertain even now. So I have amused myself with things random and educational, in hopes of better times, which might be coming at long last. I was never much of an optimist.

I have dared to share these storyboards, rendering tests and designs here, and have been driven to my knees in bitter self reproach from the comments...


(Or would have,if I gave a shit! : D )

But although everyone misses the point of what these recent works are, the homework for future projects, like the extras on a DVD showing what the production imagery was like before it was morphed into the movie you just watched. When you see something of mine presented for judgement, it will be on a tshirt and the jury will be the marketplace.

WOW! THANK YOU ANON! Very kind of you! Yeah, I understand their critique though. I do these pieces in an absolute rush. Like this one, I just did. I had a few busy days, and I couldn't even touch the tablet. Now I have my daily free hours again, and I'm gonna be rushing these pages like a madman again, and the art style suffers of course. I'm not oblivious to that fact.
But it is the only way to make this, I can't spend a week to do just one "masterpiece" of a coom comic page, it would take me a year to finish just one story, and my brain can't stay focused that long in one project anyway lol. Thanks again anon!!!

That's exactly it. Whatever we do to keep hope alive is worth it. A happy life is build on a sequence of happy moments, even if those happy moments are just happy little drawings. Most people only have the hopelessness of a cold screen showing them virtual fantasies built in virtual factories. To be able to have a mind and a body able to create and experience worlds and fantasies from within their own souls, is a most divine privilege.

Milo is the son of the Chief Articifer for the pocket of civilization they call a kingdom, and was educated from the age of four. So he's a gadgeteer akin to Tony Stark, a master engineer at the age of 12. It was then the tragedy that compelled him to become a medical doctor at 16 happened: an anthromorph girl he cared deeply for died from an accident, and the human men that could have saved her just showed their contempt for another useless Critter (a derogatory term) just proved evolution right by letting her stupidity cull her from the gene pool. Such opinions aren't universally shared among Trueborn humankind, but to consider anthromorphs beneath human folk was to be the "normal " thought, and with anthromorph enslavement being an institution of the society, whether or not its a truth in actuality. Imagine Rome was running Western Civilization, and the idea of intelligent cattle under their rules and regulations. Milo hates it, and fights for the rights of all oppressed people with his technology. His eagle headed walking stick has an internalized interdimensional space organized kinda like Windows, weapons, tools, useful helping hands, all conjured out of the vibrations of intersecting planes within the staff. It has a crystal core,and through vibrational attunement pocket dimensions can be created and accessed like so many folders. He has a haversack, a bag also compartmentalized like Windows folders, holding useful but less needful things, like butter for Mister Buttertoes. The drone spy video feeds to the interior of his glasses, as well as tiny screens with data when needed. And at the university where this story happens resides the pioneer of the compartmentalized spaces technology Professor Fump MacDoodle, inventor of the Omnihat.

In the First Story, Peter wanders from lands still under anthromorph enslavement into the Professor's neck of the woods, and hitches a ride with him for a consultation over the problem of a local farmer with a succession of animals protruding from his nostril that the Professor's equipment cannot detect. Peter sizes up what sort of woman the farmer's wife is by her obsession with sheep and shepherdesses, and the decade long abandoned slave shacks he saw on the way there. Peter was content with assuming a bumpkin personna when dealing with certain humans with innate prejudices, but when she served sheep themed refreshments without a portion for Peter, Milo was outraged. Peter was the one who solved the cunnundrum by pointing out the living being has an electromagnetic field that would mask probes not attuned to it, the missing piece of the puzzle. Milo makes a stink, Peter bows out after thanking the Professor and leaves as the wife wishes for him to do. The Professor takes the time to utter harsh truths at the farmer's wife before pursuing Peter,who is nowhere to be seen.

Repeat until you get something that you want to draw again, then get to know it.

It's a stone sculpture that is the size of Rhode Island stuck on a spike. At the end of the war for anthromorph emancipation, the final confrontation was a race through bare stone valleys to an artifact called the Ontological Overdrive, essentially a Wish granting machine that would switch the wisher to the dimension where the requirements of fulfillment are achieved, the loophole for screwing you. When Cassandra got to it, she wished for a task worthy of her, and this thing appeared in the valley, causing hurricane winds as it displaced billions of square feet of air. She has been poking around for a decade on it, trying to unravel its secrets. The CRPG I would make from my work would be an AI game master letting the player explore the place, inventing scenarios and places as needed. A finite space, but one that will take years to explore, especially if you want to play the game and not just run as fast as possible to map it. AI personalities will be the NPCs, and as there is no agenda for motivating the player other than whatever they stumble across, you can stay in one spot and have a simulated RPG life like Daggerfall. It would be what I would be doing in the AIs place, picking a spot on this gigantic stone head and thinking about what is there and why.

Totally agree with that. I can't jeopardize something so special as this, just for some "finicky promise of market good will" as money is. I can get money sweeping floors, and it only cost me a few hours a day. Or I can get the "promise" of money in exchange of the only thing that grants me going everyday to a happy magical place where I can create anything I want and live anything I want. You can't put that on the table just to see what's in a gift box.

Playing with the sky
Clouds zooming by
The switch is flipped
The timeslide tripped
Off you go
Off you go
Down to the NeverKnow.

Breach the Cascade
Reach the UnMade
Light fills your eyes
Your soul with surprise
That is so
That is so
Here in the NeverKnow.

The Truth you seek
You cannot speak
Running this rift
Parameters drift
The lowest blow
The lowest blow
Known to the NeverKnow.

And you get to land
All went as planned
An altar to an altered state
To embrace, entrance, elate
What you show
What you show
Touched by the NeverKnow.

Art isn't just drawing.

If you can fill in a template, you can do a lot of profitable things. I designed the skin, hair, armor on a clothing layer, and physical bits like the teeth.

Nice scenery composition! Your style is very artistic. If you open that image in Krita and go to "color" and then apply "color to alpha" it will turn the blank space of the page into a transparency. Pretty easy. I may test that now.

Here, I made a quick test. Krita's color to alpha works quite well. Then you can just color under the pen/ink/scanned layer, with pretty good results. I used some basic flat colors. Looks like those old timey comics.

op I’m frankly mystified how you’ve managed to make an arrangement of some off putting in various degrees of semi realistic sexy muppets morbidly charming.

I’m not going to read it it’s illegible to me, but I can appreciate what anons call chicken scratch since to me feels more like an evidence of you getting the feel of a surface through the drawing. You’re plugging volumes in your forms and I like that

>>8046550
Yeah, I tried to use some color related to the sky elements, like the sun. But it was a pretty quick test. It's amazing how some basic colors can give to such a chaotic-esoteric and naturalistic art-style a solid cohesive look all of a sudden.
>>8046791
You will draw because you are you.
>>8047086
The text is perfectly readable in a monitor. I proved (at least to myself) with this quick color test, >>8046529 that it is not "just chicken scratch", he is very methodical with what he draws, that's a LOT of characters, scene composition detail, and other things in that one page, and he seems to draw that quite fast.
>>
>>8047086
I agree that the lettering is terrible, but it's a byproduct of the frenzy of getting a thought on paper that makes the roughs too rough. When I get home from work tossing boxes around at night, I smoke a bowlful of inspiration, then look at the empty page and have no idea what will appear. In this set of videos, each a day's worth of drawing time, what started as a fairy touching a pool became a collection of female versions of the fairy army I made for the Snowglobe story. All bitching about men, of course.

I was imagining what the characters were saying as I drew them, to have little microcosms in negative spaces. Inventing as I went along. Most of my work has been a random event.

I look forward to drawing to a purpose for once.

>>8047534 >>PAGE 34 FINISHED! I forgot to clarify that Milo is having a flashback, when I said "three years ago", I meant three years prior to that encounter with Sparky. That's his initiation into the college's secret society, and the Priestess is not Sparky of course, but just some other "professional woman" hired for the ritual. Is up to the reader to find in his own mind what happens with the girl from the flashback, was there an orgy afterwards?.. does she gets "sacrificed" or "eaten"? Could this be the ultimate secret sin in Milo's life? (though, that's the idea behind these initiation rituals in secret societies) That's up to the viewers and it is part of their inner and personal experience with the story, to keep it alive as an enigma to solve inside their own mind.

Thanks anon! Tho, NO ONE comes here to be "popular" lol! If you wanna be "popular" you have to be in the mainstream platforms. This place is for nostalgic loners of times past. I said it previously that I'm still a fan-fic fag from the mid 2000's, back then when we loved to create stuff, worlds, mind adventures. Today it seems people has lost it, they don't care about anything anymore. We are going through the "aphantasia death", like in that Neverendig Story movie. 20 years ago It was normal to create interwoven fanfics it was a shared gift, entering other worlds, and live in them, knowing that you will be leaving for a new adventure at any moment, connecting with the passion of some other creator, and making something amazing in there too. Whatever happen with that? At some point everyone became so anal, and desperate for "muh brand", fooled into the promised "money success" everyone turned against each other, trying to sell their shit to each other and sharing nothing. As the song says, "nothing plus nothing leaves nothing". We're dying of nothingness.

I thank you for the insight on coloring my art, and how you managed to separate the figures from the background in a sea of chicken scratches. I plan on embarking on the computer side of things soon, using all my recent stuff properly scanned and awaiting Photoshop legerdermain. Coloring stuff is definitely on the agenda. I plan on experimenting with making the faux 3D stuff like this with the end of planning my art output for post processing. I made Cassandra using Alien Skin filters Fur and Swirl, and the background altar with Bevel, copying the best side of art made by random button pushing and flipping it into a mirroring whole. The floor was a flat square of Chaotic texturing stretched wide in a Perspective transform. The walls craquelure, and either bevel or glass. I can only imagine what I will make with my style now.

You have a VERY POWERFUL rough sketch ability. I still like the rough version better than the more detailed new one. Her ass and legs proportions in relation with the rest of her body looks so fucking hot and clean in the first draft version. I don't know why that happens with all of your sketches. You just nail it in the first try.

It had some kid proof plastic membrane for a keyboard, easily cleaned but requiring a lot of finger pressure to type on. And I liked to type out the programs from Atari magazine, the cooler machine language ones requiring a few dozen blocks of data the executable worked off of. Huge,exacting clumps of gibberish that I would occasionally get wrong and lock up the computer, requiring a hard restart and the loss of all my work. And how you saved your work? Cassette tapes. And that only working occasionally.

Of course the keyboard had fangs.

It ate fingers.

Thanks anon! I guess that's something this board taught me. The concept of "shitposting", it is very liberating, it feels like the shredding and burning of old drawings ritual thing. It doesn't matter what you post, you're just feeding a fire shared by your frens here, and to laugh about it. it's just water down the river, in the way this board works, what you post is just nothing, something that fades away, and if it is good, someone will keep it. It's a great way of sharing and experiencing art, and it cultivates a constant habit of creating a piece just for the heck of it, and so you inadvertently build up your level, at some point, you get good at something you draw, even if you do it for the lolz. So scribble and doodle away, and be happy.
>>8052353

Yeah, the thread begins to "die" after reaching limit reply (300 posts) then it starts to sink for archiving termination. So you have to make a new thread, you can use the same OP post and add "PART II"
I can do it if you want, but, you're the driving artistic sovl here.

We both are keeping the thread alive, but no matter how active one is, all threads sink into the Valley of Page 10? Last year when I couldn't draw, I made a thread that I posted the whole Snowglobe story and other long form stuff. But someone said " s a g e" and that sent the thread straight into oblivion.

This was from late grammar school early high school.
>>
>>8053382
LOL, yeah, trolls and bullies here will do that. "sage" doesn't do anything really. He was just being a jerk, he just used that "filter/code" so his reply/comment would not bump the tread. So yeah if you're all alone is hard to keep a thread alive, but here we have at least four anons being active. You can always keep making a new continuation thread. All the threads die after 300 replies of course, but the memories and artistic adventures remains. We will continue Sparky in the new thread don't worry.

That picrel was pretty cool, it has that 80's sci-fi terror flick vibe.
